Two of Hinckley Allen’s Partners are participating at this year’s annual Construction SuperConference. Both Wendy Venoit and Ronald Ciotti will be speaking in back-to-back panels about current trends in the construction industry.
About Wendy’s Presentation:
When dealing with cases that involve tens if not hundreds of people, how can you avoid reliving a construction project? Wendy Venoit will be speaking at the Construction SuperConference on “Streamlining Your Arbitration: How to Avoid Reliving That Construction Project ‘Brick by Brick'”. Venoit and her colleagues will discuss the best approach to managing a complex arbitration involving difficult projects, what to provide to the arbitrator to make his job of deciding a case for a project with many change orders easier and how to effectively work with opposing counsel and arbitrators to effectively manage the process.

About Ronald’s Presentation:
Are you keeping up contractually or putting your company at greater risk? Directly following Wendy’s session, Ronald Ciotti will be speaking at the Construction SuperConference on “How to Leverage the New 2017 ConsensusDocs Standard Contracts.” Ciotti and his colleagues will discuss how design and construction contracts set the foundation for project success or failure, especially in light of recent changes in case law, technology and insurance. Updates will address industry issues including those that impact payment, insurance, terminations, indemnification, mediation and arbitration, and fiduciary duty. Attendees will walk away with strategic knowledge on how they can leverage contract negotiations on specific provisions in the new 2016/2017 editions of ConsensusDocs standard contracts.
